Three Year's ago.

Jace's POV.

My house feels weird without my family running around it, they're out of town for the weekend and I sort of miss them but Olivia is here and that's somehow better.

We took a shower together, she was shy at first but then I kissed her and she let loose.

We still didn't fuck but it was the best shower ever. Diego would call me a pussy but I think I'm finally getting the hang of that thing they call patience.

I'm willing to wait for her to be ready.

"Hey, who's guitar is this?" She walks into the living room wearing my sweatshirt, staring down at the guitar in her hands.

"Aaron's." I smile at her.

"He sings." She states.

"Like Justin Bieber, yeah." I chuckle, nodding.

"Cool." She swings her fingers on the strings and plays something short and quick.

"I didn't know you played." I squint my eyes at her.

"Then I probably shouldn't tell you that I sing too." She mumbles, biting her lip.

    Three years ago.Jace's POV.Mr Hudson is so obsessed with getting me into a college photography program. I know he only wants to help but having someone force you to do something you're not interested in doing is quite annoying.Plus, my head has been crowded ever since Olivia's parents came in town.Tristan, the ex, has to pretend to be her boyfriend while her parents are still here, I don't get why she couldn't just tell them she broke up with the guy, I mean, how fucking bad can it be?"So, what do you think?" Mr Hudson questions, dragging me out of my own thoughts."I didn't hear one thing you said." I slouch in my seat, he sighs, stroking his beard with his large hand."Oh, well, I guess I'm gonna have to involve your parents." He declares in a threatening tone.I throw my head back and puff out a breath."What exactly are you asking of me?" I stare at the ceiling fan."A good photography scholarship program in Los Angeles for a whole year," he says, I look at him."You're givin

    Three Years ago.Jace's POV.Growing up, my mum made Milkshakes a solution to everyone's sadness, other parents would take their kids out for ice cream but she always thought milkshakes were better than ice cream.I'm not exactly sad, but I'm also not not sad. It's been two weeks since Olivia's parents showed up in town, two weeks since she and I had a fight over her moving around with her ex, two weeks since she assured me that he was nothing and I meant everything.I left it alone and we moved on but I barely see her, she calls me and we text all night but it's not enough. I wanna hear her laugh and kiss her while she's smiling at me.Anyway....I haven't been to Shake n' Sip since.... I don't even remember, well, I guess since Reign graduated, she brought the fun and humor to the place and I just couldn't see myself walking into the shop and not hearing a sarcastic remark from her.And yet here I am, drinking milkshakes on the counter, kinda like the same way a grown man with probl

    Three years ago.Jace's POV.Today, I won the race because Olivia's parents are finally out of town and I'm finally free to see her at her house whenever I want.I can't stop thinking about getting the hell out of here and spending the rest of my night cuddling and kissing her.Yeah, I'm a walking cliche, I know."Holy mother of abs," Blair stands in front of my bike and dramatically widens her eyes at my chest."You like?" I playfully smooth a hand down my sweaty chest."Uh-huh," she nods and takes out her phone to take a picture of me."No, Blair, come on," I lift my hand to my face as an attempt to hide it from the camera."Relax, it's not for me, this is Cassandra's phone, imagine her face when she finds this picture in her phone," She laughs and I drop my hand, grinning at her."There we go," she takes the picture."Wait, Cass is here?" I look around the crowded place for the blonde."Yep, had to drag her out of bed and everything," she says as her thumbs fractionally type on Cas

He wrinkles his face at me."She made me feel like I was ready to change, you know? Like I was ready to be a better version of me," I slur thoughtfully."And what do you feel right now?" He asks."I feel like staying single for a very long time, I don't want anyone else to make me feel this fucked up again," my chest heaves and I swallow the heavy lump in my throat."Yeah, the life of the party is the easiest thing there is," he pats my shoulder."Do you have any pills?"

    Present Day.Olivia's POV.A part of me doesn't want to but it has to be done.I have to find out what Jace is hiding. Now or never.The plan was to text Cassandra on social media but Myra suggested something easier.If Jace dated Cassandra in highschool and is still hung up on her then he probably still has her number, Jace trusts Myra with his devices so she's the right girl for the job.The new plan is for me to distract Jace while Myra "borrows" his phone and steals her phone number.Easy. I think.The only problem is that Jace has been nothing but sweet to me for these past few weeks, he takes me out on dates, photographs me because I'm the prettiest girl he's ever seen, he texts me first thing in the morning even though we only live a few feet from each other and he supports me and makes me feel beautiful.I don't know about Olivia one but no one's ever made me feel like that before, he makes me happy.But then again, deep down, I feel like it's too good to be true.Whatever it

What'd I say?" I ask as I shift my eyes back to the dark road."Nothing, I'm not crying, I have something in my eye," her voice is hoarse like she's been crying a while."Hey, what'd I say?" I touch her shoulder."Nothing, I just realized that our relationship was just so... not meant to be, you know?" "Yeah. freaky, right?" I tighten my grip on the steeling wheel."Hurtful." She says softly."Hurtful."
